Energy for Good Government

Washington Gas is committed to its parent company's vision to be the preferred source of clean and efficient energy solutions that produce value for our customers, investors and communities.

 Energy for Good Government is designed to help Washington Gas employees learn more about the governments that help shape the way we work and live. Through information sharing, it encourages employees to participate in our nation's political process, and for some employees, provides a mechanism for their corporate voice to be heard collectively.

Public officials listen to their constituents, including corporations. But, in order to have meaningful communications with our elected officials, we should first understand the issues, the processes, and know the players.  Energy for Good Government provides you with the tools and resources to get you started. You are invited to explore this website and all its links.​
